This Creamy Sausage & Mashed Potatoes recipe combines savory sausage with creamy mashed potatoes, creating a comforting and delicious meal that the whole family will love.

Ingredients

1 pound ground sausage (any preferred variety)

4 large russet potatoes, peeled and diced

½ cup heavy cream

¼ cup milk

1 tablespoon butter

1 medium onion, chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

½ teaspoon paprika

¼ teaspoon black pepper

Salt to taste

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Place diced potatoes in a large pot and cover them with water. Add a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, about 15-20 minutes.
  2. While the potatoes are cooking, heat a skillet over medium heat and add the ground sausage. Cook until browned, breaking up the sausage into small pieces, stirring frequently.
  3. Once the sausage is browned, add the chopped onions and minced garlic. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the onions are translucent.
  4. Stir in paprika, black pepper, and a pinch of salt. Mix well and allow the flavors to blend for about 2 minutes.
  5. Pour in the heavy cream and milk. Stir continuously and let the mixture simmer until it thickens slightly, about 5 minutes.
  6. Drain the cooked potatoes and return them to the pot. Add butter, heavy cream, milk, salt, and pepper. Mash until you reach your desired consistency.
  7. Serve the creamy sausage mixture over the mashed potatoes, ensuring a generous helping of sauce on top.
  8. Top with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and extra flavor.

Notes

Add cooked vegetables like peas or carrots for added nutrition.

For heat, use spicy sausage or add red pepper flakes.

For a dairy-free version, substitute butter and cream with coconut cream or olive oil.

Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days, and reheat with a splash of milk or cream.
